MandalorianMoose 1,862 Posted June 24, 2018 (edited) Can we add experimental retros to the allowed uniques list? Tough to draft the Interdictor with half of its upgrades banned Edited June 24, 2018 by MandalorianMoose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mhd 283 Posted June 28, 2018 I'm having a hard time figuring out how a draft would work for this. Does everybody in the pod make a first, second, third list of expansions and then whoever picks those gets them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The date I'm currently planning on starting the draft is the 8th of July. I'm out of town before then, so it would be hard for me to be able to moderate the start of things until then.

Does everybody in the pod make a first, second, third list of expansions and then whoever picks those gets them? So I will start a group message with each pod, I will list the available expansions and then in turn each player will select from the list until none remain. It will probably take a few days to run the draft, possibly a week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mhd 283 Posted June 28, 2018 Alright, it looks like there's significant opportunities to fly some janky lists, I'm in if there's room. 1 JJs Juggernaut reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JJs Juggernaut 1,843 Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Poll, would you guys rather play a round robin in your draft pods, or just use the pods for drafting and do regular swiss matchups? http://www.strawpoll.me/16001181 Edited July 1, 2018 by JJs Juggernaut Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks! Hoping these @'s trigger from the quote. I'm still traveling, so communication is hard. The vote was for geographical pods so it you could all respond here with your preference (EU, NA, Asia/australia) that would be great! I'll try and check back over the weekend and I hope everyone responds then. If so I will have the draft pods running sometime early next week. If you'd still like to join now is the time! Let's hype it up!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
